auto motion gas station

"Being new to Minneapolis meant having to find a new mechanic to work on our BMW and Mercedes. In 3 years, we haven’t been impressed with what we’ve found until last week when I was sitting at the stoplight of France and Excelsior and I noticed Automotion. All this time I thought it was just a gas station. I stopped in for gas and decided to ask about a simple door handle issue on one of the cars and Patrick blew me away with his eagerness to stop what he was doing and explain the simple fix needed. I then asked him about our BMW and there was nothing but positivity that came from the time of discussing bringing the car in until when I picked the car up yesterday. Honest and mechanic usually isn’t referenced in the same sentence, but Patrick blew us away. He has so much knowledge of foreign cars and can explain it in such simple terms to where anyone could understand to some degree what he’s talking about. His customer service, above and beyond attitude, and friendly personality are a bonus on his expertise. He genuinely cares about his customers and their pockets because the rates and his honesty are far superior to the dealership and other local shops. An extra kudos is that not only did he do all of the above, but he went a step further and cleaned under the hood to perfection! Such a wow factor!"

"Pat is an extraordinary guy and exceptional mechanic. I was left helpless by the big dealerships but was lucky enough to have been recommended to Pat. He didn't only fix my car but was in constant contact. He even got my warranty company to pay for repairs after they had earlier refused. He went the extra mile to give me my car back better than when I first bought it. If u are frustrated with car problems call Pat and things will never be the same. I'm a witness. Thanks so much Pat !!!!"

"Brent and Patrick are absolutely outstanding in terms of their knowledge of foreign cars, efficiency, and customer service, but even more so I'm impressed with their integrity. They have time and again shown they are concerned more about helping their clients than making a buck, by giving honest feedback about what repairs and maintenance are essential versus not essential. Their rates are consistently the lowest you can find, for detailed exceptional work. They went over and above the call of duty to drive me to a different service shop when they couldn't help me and I needed a ride! They run their business like we are all their friends, and they clearly want to do right by their friends. It's unusual in this day and age to have such integrity and customer service in a business and I'm so very appreciative. Thanks so much Patrick and Brent!"

"Since moving to the Twin Cities, I've had 2 BMWs (one of which purchased from Automotion) and I've been a loyal customer for the past 12 years. They've been able to diagnose and repair problems that I've had with my vehicles, quickly and more effectively than any other shop that I've ever dealt with. I've known the guys that work here a long time, and consider them a helpful and great source of knowledge and they've saved my car and my wallet more than a few times. Full disclosure - I’ve known Pat for over 20 years and he’s a wizard when it comes to automotive work. He’s done and can do about anything imaginable with 4 wheels on it, and he loves what he does - and it shows. Pat and Brent have never steered me wrong and gone out of their way to make sure that my cars are taken care of. If you’re looking for a trustworthy shop that will take care of you and your vehicle, this is where you go."

"Patrick and Brent are very good to work with. Very knowledgeable with cars and great customer service. I bring my truck here all the time to have my maintenance done. Communication is key to me and these guys are on point with just that, they will call with updates and keep you up to date on your vehicle. Pricing is way better than dealerships or other shops I've been to. I would recommend everyone I know to go here!"
